HAPPY BLOG BIRTHDAY - TWO YEARS

It's hard to imagine that I've been blogging and sketching daily for the last two years! WHEW! I thought we'd enjoy a bit of candy to celebrate --!!! LOL

I do want to take a moment to thank all of you for your constant support and encouragement. I know, as much as I am enjoying this journey, that without your kind and generous words, especially when things went awry, that pencil, new in my hand, would have been put aside and the journey ended. So I am endebted to you, sweet sweet friends --- and thank you from the bottom of my heart!

For my Blog Birthday, I am joining our plein air group at a goat farm close by -- the farm we've visited earlier this year for dinner on the porch. Since I"m so cold natured, I may have to paint in my car with the heater on -- it's 29F! LOL My dh is bringing his instruments for some singing, and the kind hosts of Elodie Farms (http://www.elodiefarms.com) will provide some hot soup! Should be a wonderful way to celebrate!

Congratulations gal! Your artwork is an inspiration for all -- not to mention your perseverance -- painting when you could be sleeping -- painting when you are exhausted -- you deserve all the accolades your artwork truly deserves, including this very good -- making me hungry -- rendering of jelly beans, even though I'd rather have chocolate in this weather!Hugs,Lorraine

Yum! Jellybeans, my favourites!I looked through the whole blog and what an amazing journey you have made. Congrats! And thank you for the inspiration and joy it always is to read your blog and view you sketches! Hope you have a lovely day!

Happy Blog Anniversary Lin. My second anniverary is Jan 6th and I feel as if I have made the journey with you and EDM the last two years. I love your recent paintings and I'm going to take a jelly bean!

Happy 2nd Blogday, Lin!!! WHOO HOO!!! The jelly bean sketch was the perfect sketch choice for this post....colourful and cheerful! I feel quite privileged to have shared some of your blog journey over the past two years and I look forward to many more visits. Keep up the wonderful work, Lin ~ :)
